Cisco Threat Response automates integrations across select Cisco Security products and accelerates key security operations functions: detection, investigation, and remediation. Threat Response integrates threat intelligence from Cisco Talos and third-party sources, which adds context from integrated Cisco Security products automatically so you know instantly which of your systems was targeted and how.
As I'm working for the banking sector, our utmost importance is the security of the network. Check Point ThreatCloud helps to ensure the security by making sure the threats are monitored and treated according to the Bank's IT policy. When it comes to the ATM Network, Check Point ThreatCloud plays a severe role.
It's well suited with any security operation center. So if someone is doing anything with security, whether it be firewalling, endpoint security whether it be email security, it's certainly suited to any type of security that can roll up security events. So this is a single pane of glass where you can view all your security events. So what it's doing is it's taking all your security silos that have historically been very difficult to manage and it's rolling everything up into one dashboard, so it makes it much easier to manage.
So the product enables end users to get visibility into their security environment, not only across the Cisco products but across the third-party products as well. The product also automates detection and response. So the product really offers end-user efficiency in the security operations center.
Of course, many companies prefer to obtain security from the cloud; however, not all of them prefer it, which is why having a local implementation would allow these companies to also use said software as their ally for their security.
Working with this software can be simple, that is, any threat can be visualized with greater precision, but when it comes to managing its orchestration, it is a bit complex.
Its integration with other software can be simple but with others it is not, that is why it would be ideal if all of them could be carried out in the same way.
Integrating with a larger number of third party software would be of great help, to further enhance the analysis and detection of threats.
If you have the Checkpoint firewalls, the only real solution is the Check Point ThreatCloud to be used. If you have PAN - Autofocus or Fortinet-fortiguard. One advantage of Check Point ThreatCloud is the elimination of web security services, as the checkpoint with the threat cloud replaces the web security solutions with its vast features. Check Point products are very easy to use, and operation costs are much lower than the other vendors.
A lot of the look and feel of both products is quite similar. There's several best practices on visualization that are followed in both and integration of common telemetry is comfortable and quick. But while Microsoft ATP offers deep insights into mostly the Microsoft environment and a limited view into other common sources, SecureX shines in all the non-client areas Microsoft's product seems lackluster in.
